Happiness is:
1. When during the wedding reception, (Mark Mangilit-Gilsie Savedia) as I was going about my work, 5 of my brides went to the stage and called my name to join them and I got a big surprise of my life! They handed me a PLAQUE OF APPRECIATION.
It read:

2. The next week, in another wedding reception,(Jens Busch-Bonita Hipolito) when it was the Couple giving the message, the groom suddenly came to where I was, and handed me a big bouquet of roses! The couple and the family were profuse in saying their thank yous. But when even the guests, who were hoteliers from Malaysia, Macau, New York, Abu Dhabi and Manila were the ones giving profuse compliments, whose heart will not burst with joy!
And on Facebook: here's what I got from them!
Thanks to Tita Celia Cunanan who with her team, made this a dream-come-true night.
3. In yesterday's email, I received this from another couple, Kap Aguila-Joyce Reyes:
Dearest Tita Celia,
How are you? I know we have thanked you so many times but please allow me to write you this e-mail to make our thank you official. :)
I want you to know how much I appreciate all the support, thoughtfulness, insight, and care that you showed for the two of us and our families. Honestly, I do not know how we could have survived this wedding without you. And I want to thank you for being so open and positive despite the fears, anxieties, and worries I shared with you. Your presence made me feel much stronger and at ease. We just realized that we were not even doing anything wedding-related during the week prior to the wedding! That's how prepared (or brave) we felt!
Seriously, Tita maraming salamat po! Your professionalism and years of experience helped in shaping our wedding. Thank you for insisting that we do the table set up, that we meet with Gelli and Roger, that we have food in the morning for the suppliers, and that we give some more effort for our first dance! Thank you for making us realize that various flower set ups are better than having a uniform arrangement, coordinating with the rest of the suppliers, and for weaving everything together.
Thank you, Tita! I wish we can say let's do it again soon! How we both wish we can get married again! And if ever we do, we would not change a thing because we both agree that it was a perfect day made up of everything we wished for and more! Thank you for all your patience, understanding, and flexibility. We wouldn't have done it without you!
Our best regards,
Joyce and Kap
Today, I am actually not feeling well because of the unpredictable weather changes. But with these happy thoughts, how can I not feel good?
There is still so much to thank God for! Thank you Lord! You know why...
